SDIP INNOVATION - scientific and
technical-based experiments

about the role: 

UCSF Rosenman-based SDIP Innovation startup has an open intern position for a
motivated and conscientious person, capable of fitting in quickly to a progressive and dynamic team.

An opportunity has arisen for a qualified candidate in UCSF Rosenman Institute-based start-up, SDIP Innovation. The candidate will work within a dynamic and highly motivated startup environment on the development of the next generation of bioresorbable implants. The candidate will be guided to run some in-vitro and benchtop material tests required for the company`s 510 (k) application. The candidate has the chance to experience different aspects of entrepreneurship and learn more about
translating research into practice by working directly with the chief science officer/founder.
Duties include testing and analyzing mechanical and biocompatibility characterization, according to ISO10993 and American Society for Testing and Materials (ASTM), in a cleanroom environment. The candidate will be guided to run the duties while considering the regulatory and quality assurance requirements. Multi-tasking capability, flexibility and being open to learn new stuff skills are required. An engineering background would be preferred.

Opportunity:

The primary duties of the candidate are scientific and technical-based experiments by following the instruction provided by the chief scientific officer and involve developing standard protocols. However, there are plenty of opportunities to learn also about Regulatory, quality assurance, IP and financial aspects in a small but fast-growing and caring start-up environment. SDIP is focused on improving the quality of life of millions of patients who go through implant surgeries by providing optimal tools.

About SDIP

Hardware removal surgeries are among the most performed surgical procedures yet are
rendered unnecessary by SDIP`s technology. SDIP Innovations is developing a
patented biomaterial platform, JAZBI, to fabricate a broad range of bioresorbable orthopedic implants and scaffolds. SDIP is initially focused on developing resorbable bone grafts for osteotomy and screws for ACL reconstruction. In animal studies, JAZBI is superior to other bioresorbable materials due to its safe degradation into water and carbon dioxide, as well as complete reabsorption from bulk (inside-out), and excellent bone re-growth. JAZBI is designed for less inflammation, better healing and stronger integration into the bone for patients. JAZBI`s breakthrough technology is poised to become the gold standard bioresorbable implant which will optimize the clinical decision and patient outcome.

Location for this role

Awarded by the NSW Government Ministry of Health to build their business in the United States and UCSF Rosenman Institute and QB3 MedTech garage, SDIP is active in UCSF mission bay campus in San Francisco.
